A diaper bag is just a pretty bag unless you fill it with basic baby necessities. Once you fill up that diaper bag with basic baby necessities, it is no longer just a pretty bag anymore. This pretty bag that you are carrying transforms into a survival kit for parents and caregivers for when you take with them on any outing. Anywhere that your baby goes, a diaper bag should go. You always want to be prepared. These are some things to help you transform your diaper bag into a survival kit:

1- Diapers: Obviously you should always have diapers in your diaper bag. I would recommend at least 6. However, depending on how long you are going to be gone you may want to pack more.

2- Baby Wipes: Of course you will also need baby wipes to change the babies diaper. They also serve a dual purpose. You can use them to wipe the baby's hands when there is no sink available, and even to clean the baby's face after eating.

3- Vaseline/ Baby Powder: Or whatever it is you use in the baby's diaper the help keep the baby dry and prevent diaper rash.

4- Travel changing mat: You never know where you will have to change your baby. And a lot of parents and caregivers do not want to just plop the baby down on a public changing table without having a mat down first.

5- Bottles and/ or food: Include a few bottles with formula, and if necessary some water to mix the formula (if you use the powder kind). If you baby is on solids, you may want to pack some baby food, utensils and snacks such as cheerios. Also, you should pack a sippy cup.

6- Bibs: When you have to feed your baby outside of the house you should have bibs available so that the outfit does not get wet or messy.

7- Clothing: You should always, always carry one or two alternate outfits. There are going to be times, even when you go out that your baby takes a massive poop. You know them poops that fill up the baby's diaper so much. Then it goes up the baby's back and out of the corners of the diapers. Always carry at least one extra outfit.

8- Toys: For entertainment purposes. There are going to be times that your baby gets irritated. It will make the day more pleasant if you pack a few small toys for your baby.

9- Small Blanket: In case it gets too cold or you are in a place that is air conditioned and your baby gets a chill. You should always have a blanket available to make your child comfortable in cold places.

10- Pacifier: If your baby uses a pacifier you may want to pack and extra one or two in the diaper bag. They get lost very easily. So try and have extras.

Above are the basics that you should include in your diaper bag. As time goes by some things will be less needed or more needed. Always be sure to change the diapers and clothes in the bag as your baby grows. Now you have a basic survival kit for your daily outing with your baby.

Sage or Salvia is a large genus containing over 900 species and numerous varieties. Species of Sage grow wild in a wide range of locations, from South Africa, the Mediterranean, West and Central Asia, and many parts of North America and Mexico. Most species however, a few exceptions notwithstanding, require similar growing conditions, and these by happy coincidence, are suitable for gardens in dry climates.

Drainage

The prerequisite for success is a soil that drains well. Sages do not tolerate waterlogged conditions as a rule. The aeration of heavy, clay soils is improved significantly by adding large quantities of compost and the spreading of an organic mulch around the plants. Moreover, this should take care of all the nutritional demands of the plants without resort to chemical fertilizers.

Irrigation

With some of the tropical and sub tropical species excepted, Sages are drought resistant plants, although they do need some irrigation through the hot summer months. In heavy soils particularly, they do better on occasional deep soakings to frequent but shallow watering. This makes them unsuitable to a flowerbed containing summer annuals like Petunia or Phlox, which need water very frequently, but ideal companions for low-growing shrubs, and water conserving perennials such as Chrysanthemum frutescens or ice plants.

Pruning

Sages can be lightly trimmed throughout the year to remove flower heads, or for light shaping. Severe pruning is not recommended other than at the beginning of the growing season, i.e. at the end of winter. As Sages do not usually rejuvenate from old wood, they should only be cut back to clearly discernable growing points. The shrubby species can contribute handsomely to the garden for years if they are so pruned, and not allowed to become too open and leggy in form.

Location

A sunny aspect is as necessary to successfully growing Salvia as is adequate drainage. In the shade, flowers are liable to be sparse, while the plant's growth will be lank and leggy. For the most part they prefer less humidity to more, being susceptible to powdery Mildew fungi in moist conditions. It is important therefore to place them where air circulation is good, avoiding closed locations where possible.

It can be tough finding the perfect gift for a work colleague or friend, but there's one thing that all executives need, and also usually enjoy receiving: good quality silk ties! The beauty of buying ties as a corporate gift is that while most executive gifts tend to be quite clinical and boring, a new tie can really reflect the personality of the individual you are buying for. Unlike posh pens or executive toys, a well chosen and high quality silk tie will be uniquely original and stand out from other gifts.

Another great reason to buy ties as executive or corporate gift is their simple practicality; few corporate gifts are quite as practical as a high quality silk tie. Ties won't just get lost amongst the desk clutter like an executive toy, and it's far easier to buy ties which will actually get used than it is to find a good quality briefcase or pen.

Be sure to purchase silk ties however, as they have a higher quality and finish than ties made from cheaper materials. The higher quality will also help the ties stand out from other gimmicky executive gifts which might look expensive, but are usually quite cheap! After all, you are buying a corporate gift for long term repeated use, so high quality silk ties will make their initial expense back while other ties are falling to pieces!

There are also an almost unlimited range of designs available for ties. If you buy silk ties, these tend to feature designs by extremely creative designers, which allows them to be both exciting and vivid but also suitable as corporate gifts. Any executive gift should take into account the workplace environment of the individual that the gift is for, and while this can be a little trickier with ties than it is with more conventional executive gifts, a well chosen silk tie will be warmly received and has a clear value above other less individualised executive gifts.

Saffron Roll Boxy Backpack Diaper Bag

Rumpelstiltskin couldn't spin gold this fabulous and he never worked with chocolate! This amazing bag includes adjustable shoulder strap, matching changing pad that zips out of the front of the bag, plenty of pockets for all of those baby and mommy items. Plus it has hidden straps to make it a backpack. NEW monogrammed wipe case holder included.

It seemed like such an easy thing at first. I merely wanted to buy my son some kid's pajamas depicting his favorite characters and images from the Harry Potter series. I thought I'd just pick some up at my local discount super center the next time I bought groceries. I had no idea how wrong this would turn out to be.

The problem was my son decided that he loved Harry and his friends after he read The Chamber Of Secrets over a summer when no Harry Potter film or book releases were on the horizon. The truth is, while it's possible to get your hands on Harry Potter kid's pajamas when a book or movie is being promoted, it's potentially difficult even then. And if you're looking for Potter pajamas for an adult or teen, it's even more difficult.

I soon found, after several special trips to and pleas with managers of discount stores, malls and specialty shops, that merchants do not regularly carry Potter items or pajamas until a new movie comes out and even then it's hard to swoop them up before the other desperate parents find out.

This creates a bit of desperation for parents of children who are wild about the wizards. I have even seen forums where parents desperate for Hogwarts or Hermione sleepwear were willing to buy the fabric and attempt to make them themselves. I am no where near this crafty.

What I've learned is that you really have two options. You can (and should) stock up on these pajamas when the books and movies come out. You should also make friends with the search options on your computer, because you'll need to pounce as soon as a rare pair of simple wizard pajamas becomes available on your screen.

Want to see which, if any, Harry Potter pajamas are currently available? Click here to find out.

By products in the chemical industry and recycled matter like PET are the synthetic materials used to create polar fleece which is also called micro fleece. In the late 70s Malden Mills was among the first people to invent the first type of polar fleece. He created a fabric that was so much more greater to wool. His proud achievements have changed the lives of many.

Some of the advantages of polar fabric are that it is environmentally friendly. There is nothing better than having a product which will ensure that your waste products are used again. Also, everyone appreciates a product that will last for long. Durability and strength are very vital and, polar fleece will definitely deliver on this.

The fabric might sound heavy but, it is very light making it easy to handle. This quality is especially helpful to sportsmen who need to perform well in their respective sports. You will find the material for all kinds of sportswear. This includes jackets, training suits, sweat pants and a variety of other products. Products are known for their thickness variation.

Those products that are thicker will be better in terms of performance. This is because the thicker the polar fleece, the higher the wind breaking features as well as the insulation. The name polar fleece became a very popular generic term rather than a brand. It was first used in 1979 by Malden Mills who was an inventor of a range of the product.

Mills used the name when he was selling his light weight polyester fabric. There are different technologies that are engaged in producing the fabric. The processes may differ at some point but in the most common one; fiber is twisted into yarn where the machine knit is into fabric after that.

Dyersburg corporation is the leading company when it comes to producing the fabric. Half a dozen companies had already been established in the Unite States alone by late 90s. The fabric is mainly popular because it can be transformed very easily. This quality is very necessary because change is constantly being witnessed in the market.

You will find the material for specific purposes and also in the casual form which is much more popular. Over the years, polar fabric made of fleece has witnessed great appreciation from people of all walks of life. The fabric is very easy to work with. This enables and encourages people to engage in sewing products for themselves. It promotes artistic expressions which are necessary in society.

With several yards of the fabric, you can easily create items from blankets to ponchos. Give it a try and see what you come up with. Chances are that you will not be disappointed. Apparel items should not be tightly knit. This is because they will require more warmth with reduced bulk.

Things like blankets will require thicker fabric. Clothes for children can also be achieved from polar fleece fabric. Jackets and vest should come in a variety that is both windproof and waterproof.

One of the most beautiful ways to improve the overall look of your outdoor home dcor is to create a garden. Gardening is an art in itself. There are many kinds of gardening from the very simplistic to the more challenging gardens to design. However, even very simple gardens add a beautiful touch for your home.

Why a Garden?

Gardening is a do it yourself kind of outdoor dcor, but it is, in many ways unlike building a porch, designing a tree house, or creating outdoor furniture.

Even if you do not have a full garden, you can add a beautiful touch of outdoor dcor just by planting a few flowers around the outside of a tree, for example. There are many ways to brighten up your outdoor dcor. Natural outdoor dcor is a one of the most beautiful types of outdoor dcor there are. And one of the most prominent of these is the art of gardening. A garden creates an ambiance unlike any other, because of the welcoming allure and fragrance that plants and flowers provide.

Flowers are the basis of garden dcor:

The kinds of gardens that seem the most decorative, elegant or pleasantly quaint are made so by the types of flowers and the style of landscaping used to create them. There are several types of flowers that are especially attractive when in season. And unless you are growing a vegetable garden, you care about the overall look of your garden.

Of course, you want your property to be as beautiful as possible, right? And among the very best ways to accentuate the beauty of your home from the outside are the many colors and scents of the flowers themselves. Here are some very popular kinds of flowers for your annual planting:

Geraniums:

A is a spreading perennial, which blooms in loose spikes and will add a touch of beauty to any outdoor dcor.

Primrose:

Primrose seeds, which are often sown by nature, like a present, a stunning surprise for your garden.

Dwarf Japanese Iris:

The Dwarf Japanese Iris is a beautiful flower, however it really does take a lot of attentiveness to keep healthy. In the long run, though, you end up with outdoor dcor that is fragrant peaceful and stunning to look upon.

The yellow trillium as part of your floral outdoor dcor is a wonderful flower with three mottled leaves and a flower top each stalk.

Perennials:

The perennials that bloom early, such as those above, paint the garden with flowers, then subside modestly to green or go dormant while waiting for the next spring. Planting perennials is one way to add an annual splash of color to your outdoor dcor. Here are a couple more ideas:

Azaleas:

Azaleas are early-blooming flowers that provide your garden with a delicate sense of personal style and can certainly serve as outdoor dcor for your home.

Variegated euonymus:

Variegated euonymus can serve as a floral outdoor dcor that act as a ground cover, and brightens up the shade.

Make sure to note that the required care for every kind of flower variesso be sure you are planting your flowers in places where they will thrive. For example: I needed to fill a rather large bed that is almost always in direct sunlight. However, I did not want to use the same type of flower or even a couple of kinds in the bed, the bed being as large as it is. Therefore, I found a good selection of flowers that want direct sunlight to turn my flowerbed into a gorgeous display of colors and scents.

I used the following flowers:

There are several kinds of daisy osteospermum hybrids that have been developed so that you can choose the perfect colors for your garden. Of these I chose to use a pale yellowish color that Proven Winners calls lemon symphony, I also chose Soprano Purple, and Melon Symphony (which is a lovely pale peachy/melon color). In addition I chose several colors of petunia (seven colors approximately) from pirouette purple (a lovely combination of dark purple and white) to neon pink-colored petunias, to lilac colored petunias and more. I chose alyssums, which are very beautiful and fill out the bed nicely, they also remain very small, so you want to plant your alyssums toward the front of the bed. I also added a dark purple osteospermum, just as a last thought. These sun-loving flowers go great togetherand there are plenty morejust be sure to read the tags and see what kind of care your flowers will require before making your final decision.
